Not that this is going to come as a big surprise, but the nineteenth film from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, ‘Avengers: Infinity War’, is already breaking and setting box office records. The film dropped this past Friday, and now the word comes down that the second most expensive film of all-time has set the record for the biggest opening weekend of all time.

Domestically, Infinity War surpassed 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens and its $248 million USD opening, while global sales of $630 million USD topples last spring’s The Fate of the Furious, which brought in $542 million USD on its opening weekend. This all comes ahead of the premiere in China, which is slated for May 11th. According to reports, the latest installment of Avengers should be the fastest to ever reach $1 billion USD, though time will tell.

This is certainly great news ahead of Deadpool 2 and Solo: A Star Wars Story, which are coming in the weeks ahead. Speak your thoughts on the news below and stay tuned for more movie news coming soon. Oh, and go see ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ if you have not already done so.
